Class Attendance:
College work proceeds at such a pace that regular attendance is necessary for each student to obtain maximum benefits from instruction. Regular and punctual attendance at all class and laboratory sessions is a student obligation, and each student is responsible for all the work, including tests and written work in all class and laboratory sessions. No right or privilege exists that permits a student to be absent from any given number of class or laboratory sessions except as stated in the syllabus for each course. At the same time, it is obvious that students have valid reasons for missing classes; the instructor is expected to be reasonable in the demands they place on students. Faculty who impose penalties for excessive absences must keep accurate attendance records. Student work schedules are entirely irrelevant to course attendance and/or completion of course assignments.
Absence Policy:
Attendance is expected.
EXPW departmental policy now states that: No food or drink other than water is allowed in the classroom. Any student who brings food or drink other than water will be asked to leave the class.
School Sponsored Activity:
All absences due to school sponsored activities which would include athletics (student-athletes, managers, trainers, etc.), field trips, student body, etc. will be excused with prior notification from the coach, professor, or governing body. However, it is the responsibility of the student to contact the professor before the absence to clarify any missed assignments, quizzes, or exams. All assignments, quizzes, and exams must be turned in or taken before the absence. NO assignments, quizzes, or exams will be accepted or allowed after the absence unless agreed upon by the instructor.
Classroom Atmosphere:
- All students are expected to conduct themselves in a manner becoming mature adults and aspiring professionals. They are expected to take their assignments, class attendance, and class participation seriously.
- Students will not converse among themselves during class except when instructed to do so. When a student creates a disturbance in the classroom, the instructor will either ask the student to desist immediately or speak to the student at the conclusion of class. If the disturbances persist, the instructor retains the right to dismiss the student from the class meeting.
- No use of profanity at any time once you enter the classroom and during classroom discussions.
- Students will be issued a text book upon payment of extra class fee of $93.08
Cell Phones, Beepers, and Electronic Devices:
Cell phones, beepers, and all other electronic devices (except for opening up e-books) are to be turned OFF and PUT AWAY prior to the start of class. One disruption from a phone, beeper, or any other electronic device will result in dismissal from class. A second disruption (at any subsequent point during the semester) will result in dismissal from the class for the rest of the semester. Please step outside before class or after class if you have to make a call or otherwise use your cell phone.

Fire Safety:
The fire exit for Memorial Gym is go out the classroom door; turn left or right and go out the glass doors straight ahead.
Privacy Policy:
In compliance with the college and federal regulations, without specific college directive, the instructor is not permitted to discuss a student’s course status or grade with any third party, including parents, guardians, or relatives. The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act of 1974 (FERPA) affords eligible students certain rights with respect to their education records. Among them is the right to consent to the disclosure of personally identifiable information contained in the student’s education records, except to the extent that FERPA authorizes disclosure without consent.
One exception, which permits disclosure without consent, is disclosure to school officials with legitimate educational interest. A school official is a person employed by the college; a person or company with whom the college has contracted (such as an attorney, auditor, or collection agent); a person serving on the board of trustees; or a student serving on an official committee, such as a disciplinary or grievance committee, or assisting another university official in performing his or her tasks. A school official has a legitimate educational interest if the official needs to review an education record in order to fulfill his/her professional responsibilities. Upon request, the college discloses education records without consent to officials of another school in which a student seeks or intends to enroll.
Disability Accommodation:
Students with a disability requiring accommodations should contact the Office of Disability Services (ODS). An Accommodation Request (AR) should be completed as soon as possible, preferably by the end of the first week of the course. The ODS is located in the Roaden University Center, Room 112; phone 372-6119. For details, view the Tennessee Tech’s Policy 340 – Services for Students with Disabilities at Policy Central.
